Mens: Marist Game Thread @ RC: Sat 11/9 6pm ESPN+

Hope Soilis gets more time against Marist. It looks like his body went through some of the same transformation that Golden’s did after his freshman shortened season.

Also hoping all the first game jitters are gone and we see less panicking by a few of the less experienced guys.

Even though the OOC is uninspiring, next week’s games are the most competitive ones of the month. Need to see some improvements.

Golden to University of Florida - Hovde to follow?

Some pretty disturbing allegations about Golden have been reported by the UF student newspaper this afternoon. They are just allegations this point, but I can't imagine he will coach them much longer if proven true. Things are going to get interesting for Hovde and the rest of the staff...

Time will tell. Trump is hellbent on retribution, and undoing everything 'Scary Black Man' did. He doesn't believe in science, he has a vocabulary of about 12 words, and he's taken every page out of Hitler's book so far. You can laugh all you want, but every sign is there for what he's trying to do. I hope there are at least a few rational Republicans left who will stop him, but I am not holding my breath.
"Dems need to grapple with their denialism. Democrats let their hatred of Trump put them in a state of denial about Biden and the party's unpopularity — confident that Trump's toxicity was enough. They didn't believe their own eyes when staring at polls."

2024 Presidential Election

Section 204/205

Appreciate your civil response to assertions that you disagree with. Need more of that in our nation. Like you, have neither time nor inclination to get into an extended debate.

Will say, stand by my post. Inflation was a non issue. Illegal immigration was in check for the first time in decades. Minority unemployment hit record lows. Blue collar wages grew more rapidly than under his successor. Iran was on its knees, crippled by lack of oil revenue to foment unrest in the Middle East. Did not get us involved any foreign wars. No American soldier killed in 18 months in Afghanistan.

Biden reversed all of these policy based results. His numbers are inflated bc of the bounce back from Covid (which Trump handled extremely poorly other than fast tracking vaccine research). So stand by the post, Biden Admin was a disaster.

Agree to disagree politically...but on Spider basketball sure we agree, loved what we saw in the opener.

we'll never know.
I've said before ... Tyler was a great players and of course we'd want him back last year, but I don't know that we'd have been a better team. it changes roles. same with Dji. love his game. but maybe Tanner brings other things. maybe Tanner playing more now is better for the long run. maybe Dji back sends Tanner to the portal. who knows. I'm fine with the way things worked out. and honestly ... with Spider glasses off ... it's probably better for Dji too. hearing a different voice can be a good thing. high major. more NIL. things worked out well for him too.

maybe Michael Jordan in his prime would have never beaten me in a game of 1 on 1.

we'll never know.

But wouldn’t that have been a good thing?

Long Time - My issue with KE was largely based on the words "empirically" and "disaster." People are free to feel however they want but in what should be a fact-based evaluation Biden puts Trump to shame. There are a whole host of Biden accomplishments that are less measurable but are equally/more significant as you correctly point out. That's why I'm not going to go tit-for-tat on this board with people who feel a certain way. There are probably some metrics that favor Trump and people are welcome to consider those in making a comparison. I'm not interested in trying to change any minds on here. I just object to asserting opinions/feelings as facts.
